The temperatures will experience a generalized and marked decline this Sunday in the Peninsula and the Balearic Islands and snowfall is expected with significant accumulations in the Pyrenees and the Cantabrian mountain range.
A total of 14 autonomous communities have risk warnings of different intensity due to snowfall, rain, wind and waves, among which Aragon, Catalonia and Navarra stand out with a red warning for snowfall, according to the prediction of the State Meteorological Agency.

The heaviest snowfalls are expected again in the Cantabrian mountain range and the Pyrenees, where amounts greater than 30-40 cm may accumulate. The maritime storm will continue in the Cantabrian Sea and the Balearic Sea, as well as the wind storm, which will intensify, expected to be the peak day of this phenomenonwith gusts that may once again exceed 100 km per hour in the interior of Castellón and south of Tarragona, the Pyrenees and the high areas of the rest of the mountain systems in the northern half of the peninsula.
the frost will be extended to all mountain environments of the northern and southeastern half of the peninsula, as well as areas of the Northern plateau and to a lesser extent the Southern plateau. They are expected to be strong in the Pyrenees.
